* This function is called in two cases:
* - child was found to have a parent in trusted roots, in which case we're
* called with trust_ca pointing directly to that parent (not the full list)
* - this happens in cases 1, 2 and 3 of the comment on verify()
* - case 1 is special as child and trust_ca point to copies of the same
* certificate then
* certificate then
* - child was found to have no parent either in the chain or in trusted CAs
* - this is cases 4 and 5 of the comment on verify()
